Gunfighter is a powerful quartet whose 12 track disc is the perfect mixture of the subtle grooves of Deftones with the power punk flare of Foo Fighters and the quirk of Queens Of The Stone Age ("Blue"). Heavy in all the right places, but never sacrificing the groove underneath, this San Diego by way of Kansas City group make interesting music that contains more twists and turns than a good horror novel and will make even the owner of the most taciturn attention span take notice. Armed with eclectic taste buds and a penchant for odd chords and time signatures ("Snow In June"), Gunfighter is one of those bands whose heaviness isn't as obvious as you might think, but once their deep grooves hit you in the gut ("Dreamsickle"), the verdict is apparent. For an overwhelming outfit that breaks convention, Gunfighter is top notch and is worth seeking after.
